Oh Life

In an effort to spend my holiday gift cards before they burn holes in my pockets, I went to Best Buy, the Mall, and Target today. At the mall, I saw three parents of my high school classmates whom I chose to avoid to get out of the awkward "what's your major? where do you go to school?" questions and to not have to ask about my classmates who I didn't care what they were doing in high school much less now. Then at Best Buy I saw a group of people I recognized but could only remember the name of one of them. Nothing says unexpected high school reunion like "Hey....you." Next, in the same store, I saw another group of people I knew at some point in my life but could not remember if I recognized them from high school or college. I avoided this group altogether.

Target came next. Here, I saw a girl I new from elementary, Jr high, and high school and of course knew who she was, but then, out of no where comes the "you" group again. I quickly said goodbye and booked it out of the area. Down three aisles and I see more classmates' parents and have to dodge them as well. I have no clue why so many people from my hometown were in the city today. I don't see that many people that often when I am in my home town.

Weird

An update on the rest of my life...as always has ups and downs like a fishing boat in a hurricane. One friend being melodramatic and one friend nit-picking as much as possible at my life. One friend changed for the worse since I last saw him, one friend is finally getting to move on from an ugly old job! I got a new pair of Ugg boots today and they are fantastic. We also got a new microwave and coffee maker which may be dull to some but it makes the house pop. Way to start the new year!
